Turbohoses SMIC Results

[4001]

1. The factory fan has one bolt that mount to the OEM IC. We can and have made a proto-type that fits all of the bolts, however it is extremely time consuming. We would have to add an additional 100.00 to the IC to retain that single bolt.

Is there any chance you guys would keep those specs in case someone wanted to have one made in that way at the higher price

The fitament is good. There are no rubbing issues.
However, we are at a crossing point.

If the fan is secure enough without this bolt then I vote you leave it out; especially if it saves $100.

so 15 hp gain is just at the crank right? so that would be like 5-8 whp? very similar to circuit sports i assume. im pretty sure ********** will have a GB since he wanted to GI long ago.

No, thats 15.6 whp.

It has to be since:

1. They did it on a Dyno.
2. The hp reading with the oem is about what the MSP does whp stock.

 

[speedhawaii]

thats right. 150 whp stock duh

still browsing this and reading for info, but for $700+ i think i might pass.. ill keep looking for any GB's though.

 

[Dr.Sound]

very interested.
i was one of the first people to see the ProtoSport prototype SMIC last September.
i was one of the first to drive the car with SMIC in it.

I WANT SMIC!!!
turbohoses is an excellent company. i shall go for the combo of aluminum pipes and SMIC.

 

[spicynamja]

Turbohoses Hardpipes are simply the best quality. THE BEST. Their SMIC will be the same. I want it badly.

 

[jflo]

yeah, i agree that turbohoses has good quality...it's making it very hard to decide where to spend my saved up money (that's if i ever do save anY !) on the hardpipes and SMIC, or hiboost FMIC...mmmmmmmmmmm

 

[chillinmcmillan]

sounds interesting but I just gotta have a FMIC, keep on saving!

 

[ARunto]

Yes it has been R&D along with all there products. Dyno numbers are on the front of the page compared to the stock numbers.

If the fan is secure enough without this bolt then I vote you leave it out; especially if it saves $100.

In order to keep it within a reasonable price range, this will have to be the case.

Update

We have slightly adjusted the geometry of one one of the IC's parts. This will result in another 1/2 to 2hp gain which will vary depending on your boost setting.

We are going into production and will be able to deliver 5+ kits per month.

The question I have is are you in line to become a Authorized Vendor? If not, hit this link here: http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=53836

If you are just gauging interest, it's all good!

 

[Bhamsan]

Can we see the dyno sheets? I want to see exactly where the HP is gained. Also, any word on the price yet?

 

[srd555]

Is the Fan Secure????? Or will one have to make brackets.

 

[jurgs01]

I also would like to see the Dyno sheets. I would like to be one of the first ones to order one. I would like to get mine in before summer is over. I would prefer a deal if ********** does a GB, but if that is not going to happen I will just order one. What is the estimated price? Also, can you expand on the how secure the fan is without the mounting bolt in place.

 

[rocketspeed]

Definately interested in how secure the fan is. The whole SMIC, hardpipes and intake setup would be nice.
